I reckon you should do it in the WW2 Desert Caunter Scheme. The RAF have done a modern Typhoon in Battle of Britain scheme, to commemorate D Day, and it looks the business. So what about you do a Chieftain to honour the Desert Rats?

[@mickduggan9666]

The most interesting camouflage patterns are those that were designed with a specific location in mind, for example, Berlin pattern and Malta pattern. I suggest you paint it in Acid House Rave pattern. No one will expect it, you can sneak into festivals without being spotted, you'll never lose it in a supermarket car-park and the "war on drugs" will finally get some heavy duty fire power. What's not to like about it? :)

[@bxmachine]

That intro was absolute comedy gold!

Just what is needed, right after the budget. Solutions, Actions, and Choice. Well done Ted.

[@Hernik_der_Herzhaft]

Not sure who thought of putting the reliant Robin on the tank and doing a wheel spin , putting a swing on the barrel, and still made a "how the heck do we get to the starter" video..... but it was brilliant video! loved it! 🖤

[@billybonson2534]

I am sorry Adam got a parking ticket. I think you should paint the Chieftain in Berlin colours. I know you said it has been done but I have two reasons. Reason one, to upset Seb. Reason two, to upset Jack. I feel this is a win

Black with flames up the side. Just for the foreshadowing of when Adam's hillybilly mods make it catch fire and after all it is the fastest Cheiftain.

To add to the pedantry (re: Rootes blower/scavenger), those coolant hose clamps are NOT Jubilee clamps, they are Churchill clamps. Very expensive unobtanium. They were the OG constant tension hose clamps. Jubilee clamps are not constant tension, and should not be used. Loved the burn-out!!

Hi Joe and Crew. With regards to what to paint Mr. best's Cheiftian, I believe it's primarily a naval camouflage, for use at sea as the bobbing waves aid in misrepentating it's true course and speed but I do think some Dazzle Camouflage would look amazing. Many Thanks Ladies and Gents, Alex S-D

Interesting video tonight guys. Seen Robins in the trees and bushes but never on a tank! I think Olive drab with a hint of drab olive might spruce it up.

SR-71 Blackbird paint scheme for the Chieftain. Flat black to match the Fodden, then a few carefully placed red pin stripes for accent.

[@westcumbriantransportfilms4364]

I think should paint the Cheiftan matt black and white to match the Mighty Foden, with 'I Identify As A Foden' on the side

[@babalonkie]

Artic/European winter looks the best... but hardest to maintain. Desert pink is overdone and tacky. European/NATO Green camo is the best between looks and maintenance. Or even another Berlin Brigade... it's a dope pattern. The choice is yours. Also... it don't take much to read a sign Adam... tot tut you naughty boy!
